So glad they are having fun with this

Guilty, and I dont roll like that anymore. One time in early 20s I was so high I missed my exit on the interstate not just once but twice. I told myself I wouldnt drive drunk, and really the correct phrase was and is i should never drive inebriated, regardless of the cause.

I turned on Ubuntu after unity, but it's one if the few that's done a decent job as a starting point for people that are tired of Windows. This is another example of trying to be cool over functional that really bothers me with some of the more popular Linux desktop distros that are damn near targeted at Windows users. They will never compete with Windows for marketshare they want to until they do something like get Microsoft to make a linux version of Office, but even Office still has 32bit versions. Passed it three times, going to go after CE next so never have to take it again. What worked for me was getting a Sybex book, doing the professor messer videos and pdf cheat sheet, then going to measureup for practice questions until I was in the 90s or started recognizing questions. 3 months is realistic, dont reread the book, if you dont get something, look somewhere else for a shorter, better explanation. Donr do a bootcamp unless you read the book first, you'll be wasting your time.

I swear the Wizards thread feels like a Support Group meeting sometimes. "I'm back again, so I dont know if that means I've falling off the wagon or not." *circle claps

US is showing it can already do specific damage or widespread disruption via cyberwarfare that many people fear others will successfully do us eventually. Obama proved this in way he went after North Korea for attacking Sony Pictures. It will always be this hand over fist path, new exploit, patch, new exploit pattern, so unless we going make sure our end is safe, I hate the idea of flaunting so openly our non-kenetic capabilities. Its liking bragging about your hands knowing you ain't got no chin.

They are trying to be a year round league like the NFL, that's what it feels like stretching everything out and overemphasizing things more.

Remember when Spiderman 2 with Dr. Octopus was considered the best superhero movie ever made up to that point? Me neither, that was so long as ago, it was pre-Dark Knight.

Your evolution into full blown troll is almost complete. Heretic.

I agree, if we want to get serious about improving the defense, we can't have someone on the roster that jokes about them not being paid to do that. **** that ****.

Did I read that graphic right? Atlanta's starter tonight is allowing close to 2 and half homeruns per 9 innings pitched? Offense doing what it's supposed to do when some bamma like that comes into your stadium.

You are reading that correctly.

Build a new "Ellis Island" in El Paso. If people want to come here that bad, let's get back to what we used to do and let them do that in a legal, efficient manner with the resources neccesary to pull it off.

Here's to hoping Rui is one of those death before dishonor types. "I have failed you, Master Brooks." *prepares for seppuku "No, no, no, no! What are you doing? Put the sword away! How did you even get that in here?!"

You dont know me well enough to be putting words in my mouth, I've been against tanking for a long time. Especially us since we cant develop talent to save our life anyway risking wasting the pick.

It's not irrational, you jus disagree with me. New Orleans had a lower chance of getting the number 1 pick, yet they jumped 6 spots and we dropped 3. Those numbers are too close to each other to gamble on, and I've already made a thread on how research has pushed for having a competent front office over a litany of lottery picks you have no clue what to do with. Team Lottery Odds New York 14.0% Cleveland 14.0% Phoenix 14.0% Chicago 12.5% Atlanta 10.5% Washington 9.0% New Orleans 6.0% Memphis* 6.0%

We already calling these guys elite talent and they haven't played a game yet? My point stands, if three teams "won" none of them were us.

You probably do with people's limited understanding of history in this country, maybe not you or me. Most people who have heard about concentration camps learned about it through what the Nazis were doing, that's their primary working example they reference this conversation to. There are some important distinctions here and Larry has a point that we arent gathering people already in the country, these are people we are catching trying to cross the southern border to get in.

That's what we like to a call a perfect storm, not to mention how many of those assets came from the AD trade, not their attempt to tank. Like Steve mentioned, we got leapfrogged multiple times in the lottery, the odds of getting the first pick are so small now I dont believe tanking to get the number overall pick is a feasible plan, New Orleans wasnt only one that tried to win the Zion sweepstakes.

Hmm... that's tough. I agree with some of what your saying, the Japanense internment was never brought up when I was in school, I doubt it is today. Maybe this isnt a case of people being stupid but jus not being educated on the differences and similarities of these three different situations. I get what you saying, but without making clear the distinction between extermination camps and concentration camps a lot of people in this country are treating it like crying wolf. I dont think that conversation is possible with people trying to shock us into action via terminology, the reality on the ground should a big enough selling point to how bad this is on its own. Jus talking outloud, i know a couple conservatives that feel this way, and it's not a stupid thing, i didnt know scholars were calling these concentration camps on the southern border, I thought that was a distinction in Germanys attempt to kill people while the internment camps we had was to hold people.

I dont like the throwing around of the term "concentration camps". What is the difference in the term "internment camps", which I've heard referenced a lot in what we did to the Japanese during world war 2? Anytime I hear concentration camp, I think of fact Germany was exterminating people in mass as part of a mass cleansing, we are either holding people or kicking them back out the country in both of our cases of holding people like this. The correlation with what the Nazis did feels like a distraction and leads to people saying what we are doing on southern border now isnt that bad versus focusing on how bad what were doing actually is, it's certainly not good. If were going to have this conversation in this country, it'd would probably do better to compare the historical context to what we did to the Japanese instead subtle hints to what the Nazis did to the Jews, it's not the same. I do believe AOC did that deliberately, and I'm not happy about it, it's not helping.

And I hope it's a lesson to us all.

When is the last time we bought a second round pick?

Ok, I'm gonna say this then go back to what I'm doing. I predict they will have some themed event centered around him and the fact they play in Chinatown and make this poor Japanese man uncomfortable AF. He looks like a bigger version of Kelly in the clips, but omg with not even talking to him before drafting him. We look like we have a skeleton crew front office, take me to your leader, everyone shrugs their shoulders.

Thanks, another Otto Porter. I think I'm done for the night.
